By Andrew Leland

The Country of the Blind: A Memoir at the End of Sight is a 2023 memoir written by Andrew Leland. Leland suffers from retinitis pigmentosa, a condition that caused him to lose his sight gradually after childhood. By the time this memoir was published, Leland's vision had deteriorated to viewing the world through a narrow tunnel. The book explores Leland's experience with total blindness and the societal aspects related to visual impairment, including terminology, social dynamics, and cultural perspectives around blindness.
